– that’s real simple, his eyes they sit on top of his head, he can’t see down below what’s inside of his mouth. But if something were to touch the inside of his jaw, even a drop of water falling from the pole, you all would see a different reaction. So to show you want I’m talking about. Dan is gonna put his hand in the Gator’s mouth.

[Audience]
No he’s not!

[Announcer]
Come on, man, you got a big crowd. How about it guys, do you wanna see Dan put his hand in the Gators mouth?

[Audience]
(applauds and cheers)

[Audience]
Come on Dan!

[Announcer]
Me too.

[Announcer]
I’m not joking he’s gonna show you just how the jaws work, he’ll put his hand in there, he’ll touch the bottom jaw. And he’ll try to get his hand out before the jaw snaps shut. If you have a camera, go ahead get them out. Focus now on the Gators mouth. You might see an awesome picture of the Dan’s hand inside the Gator’s mouth. Hopefully, not stuck. But if it is, that’s a good picture too.

[Audience]
– is this thing trained? I’m sure. Eww

Dan!

[Announcer]
That’s how those jaws work, folks, give him a nice round of applause. That was fast. Did you all get your pictures?

[Announcer]
Now Dan do it again. He’s gonna catch the Alligator for you folks, he’s got one or two ways to do this, one way is approach the Gator from the front, pin his head back, grab hold of his jaw, hold on to him as he thrashes as he ties up —
